Home organization is, ironically, such a mess. This is especially true when you don’t know where and how to begin. So if it’s your New Year’s resolution to create a semblance of order in your home, then you should consider learning these tips –
Establish a Schedule
Maintaining a schedule is crucial in home organization. As you consistently organize and clean up during the same days, you would avoid the headaches that come with accumulated dirt and dust.
This is your effort to stay on track so you have to set the days on your calendar when you will declutter. A lot of people focus on bathrooms, kitchens and other common areas of their homes that they end up ignoring the home office.
Paper Clutter No More
It is so easy for paper to accumulate in a home office so whether your paper clutter consists of receipts, mails, magazines or business cards, you have to have a solution for every kind of clutter.
As you receive copies of your magazine subscriptions but you end up reading them on your tablet anyway, then you might as well cancel your subscription and move on to digital subscription.
Throw your mails in the junk as you sort them and consider each one that’s not needful. To cut down on receipt clutter, use an app to scan then manage your numerous receipts. Receipts by Wave is one such app.
Well-Used Wall
If you’re a little short on cupboard space, it’s time to get your stuff out in the open. Go ahead and display the dishes on a chalkboard wall. This dark background will allow you to indicate a place for every item. The added benefit is that you even encourage others to keep their stuff right where they belong. If you’re artistic enough, go ahead and draw shapes; if you’re more of a poet, write poems, and if you’re more of a writer, then go ahead and concoct words that inspire.
The Unique Tub
What better place is there to congregate clutter than at the entry? So get a galvanized tub, put some discreet compartments using foam cores and you’ve just created the best cylinder for keys, mittens, hats, caps, gloves, bug spray, and just about anything that you can add in there.

The Correct Nightstand Setup
The bedroom is a place of rest so to have it look cluttered just defeats this very purpose. It’s time to turn that messy nightstand into something more organized. Create compartments within the nightstand’s drawers so you can place your reading glasses, some novels, the remote control, cell phone, etc.
Toy Tagging
Children’s play stuff are a common clutter inside homes. Yet homes can actually still look pristine even without curtailing your kids’ play time. Stock your shelves with tagged toys or label the containers with photos of the toy that is placed inside. When you want to update, just swap the photo of Buzz Lightyear with that of Bumblebee.
Don’t Forget Electronic Clutter
The electronic clutter that you have on your computer shouldn’t be treated differently from paper clutter. You should also sort the files especially the ones on your desktop. Know that people who are organized with their electronic files tend to be orderly in their home office.
An example of an organizing tool that you can use is Evernote. This is an app that will help you remember the big and small things on your tablet, phone or computer. You can also organize recipes using the Evernote Food app. Here, you can also record the places where you have dined at.
Conclusion
Organization requires discipline so you have to commit to your New Year’s resolution. If you want your home to declutter and remain decluttered, then you have to have a resolve to make your home stay immaculate – there’s simply no other way.
